With the speed of a hamster on a sugar high!

Wrote 9,400 words in 3 hours. Now the question is:

What the heck can I do the rest of the day?

Here is the proof:

It is like for years I have been eating only meager portions, and then, one day, someone handed me an entire large pizza!

Speaking of pizza, I think I deserve one XD

By the way, can someone who is good with math tell which Pulp Speed 9k is? And how to calculate it. I found some blog posts, but they weren't very clear.

Happy writing, everyone!

As far as I understand, pulp speed one means one million words per year (that's about 2700 a day), and each next pulp speed is 200000 words more per year. Which makes pulp speed six two million words per year, or about 5500 per day. Not sure what pulp speed 9k is supposed to be. Either 2,6 million words per year (that's about 7100 per day), or it's something I haven't heard about.

On that note, your writing speed baffles me. Few authors can even keep up pulp speed one for long periods of time.

Edit: okay, stupid brain, didn't understand the question (I blame your wording). 9k words per day, you multiply it by 365, subtract 800000, and divide by 200000. That's the pulp speed. 9k words per day gives 12,425, so it's pulp speed 12 if you want whole numbers. 9,3k words per day is almost exactly pulp speed 13.

Can you wrap me this thing in an Excel formula variant?

Please?

4thewords. It is a website, not an app. But it is paid.

That would be =(<words per day>*365-800000)/200000
Just replace <words per day> with the cell.
You can also use =FLOOR((<words per day>*365-800000)/200000;1) if you want it rounded down (that's assuming you have the English version of course).

Keep writing. Readers drink words like water. 9k isn't enough!!!!!!!

But seriously, nice work. Don't burn out!

Dora does 9k in the time it takes most authors to finish 1k.

I am taking a writing break, btw! I just hope by the time I get enough brainstorming done for my next project, I will have updated at least one of my completed stories to the end.

Why are there no update bots, why?

It's moments like this I wish the old 4Lokos still existed.
